I am having the same problem, but adobe reader also do not print. I checked Cups, Kprinter and everything else I could find. I export file from Scribus, all setting indicate letter, but KDPF tries A$ or it aborts. --
Check the setting under: KDE Control Center-->Regional & Accessibility-->Country/Region & Language-->Other tab-->Paper Format It may be set to A4 which is the default at install.
That fixed the KPDF problem. Do not understand why there are 4 places to setup the printer, Yast, CUPS, KDE Print manager, and the Region settings though.
YaST, KDE print manager, Gnome print manager, CUPS web interface, and CUPS command line tool "lpadmin" have all the same result: They set up the stuff for the printing system (i.e. for CUPS). On the other hand KDE control center and/or the printing related settings in any individual application progarms set up the stuff for the KDE applications and/or for other individual applications. In the end the settings in the printing system and in the applications must match to each other, at lest they must not conflict, see the Suse Linux 10.0 manual: file:///usr/share/doc/manual/suselinux-manual_en/manual/sec.p.appl.html "Configuring the Printer": "Configuration for Applications" The future solution is that the applications ask the printing system (i.e. ask CUPS) about its settings instead of having seperated private settings in each application or desktop.
